[PRCo] North Jersey architecture in 1900

[Rich Rockwell]

This has nothing to do with PRCo, but if you are interested in a
representation of architectural styles in Bloomfield and Glen Ridge, NJ
between 1890 and 1915, I scanned a collection of glass plate negatives that
belonged to a realtor who photographed the houses he sold.  Many were new at
the time of sale/photograph.

Bloomfield is the next town northwest of Newark.  It is now served by a
light rail/subway line to Newark that was built in the abandoned bed of the
Morris Canal.  This collection of photos represents a building boom period
that was influenced by the expansion of railroads and streetcars in the
area.
